<pre>Description:
I open a CSV file with TAB separated values in LibreOffice Calc and change some
cells. The I hit CTRL+S to save the changed file. Then, the CSV file is saved
replacing the TAB by a COMMA (,) which cannot be the intention of saving a CSV
file which was opened with TAB delimiters.
If I create a new file and save it as CSV file with TAB delimiter, then any
saving of the CSV file (using CTRL+S) does store the file TAB delimiter. This
is the expected behavior.
The actual problem occurs, when LibreOffice Calc is used to open and re-save a
TAB separated CSV file.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open CSV file with TAB delimiter
2. Change cells
3. Save file
4. Open CSV file with editor: TAB changed to COMMA (,)
Actual Results:
TAB is replaced by COMMA
Expected Results:
TAB should not be changed when saving, if a TAB separated CSV file is opened
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101
